Look! It's me in the Local Paper
Most local papers will print any old rubbish. Far, far too many years ago I got into the Windsor, Slough and Eton Express after winning a fancy-dressed-bicycle competition. What they neglected to mention was that I was the only entrant.
What sad stuff have you been in your local rag for doing? Scan stuff in and show us if you can.

The Examiner (Fekking Photographers Prt 2)
The Examiner: Huddersfield's foremost journalistic nightmare of cheesily set-up camera shots and "pour grammer and Speling".
One nice snowy day, while cars where becoming headline material by getting some wheelspin, two mates and I were playing in the snow.
Students, aged 22ish, and having a laugh.
Greenhead Park has a molestE area of clean, neat, slightly downhill grass that any self-respecting geek would want to roll giant snowrolls on. We did. MASSIVE bastards. Two of them.
A photographer came along and snapped pictures, and then decided that they weren't good enough without a bunch of little sprogs all over them. He called over the entire under-12 population of Huddersfield.....
Cue Giant photo the next day... "These Youngsters enjoyed fun in greenhead park"
Pah. From engineering snow-ball GENIUS to Childish Twuntism: thanks to Shite Photographer.
That's me (dead center) getting low to make the snowball look moleste. and a mate sat on top, as far back as possible and low... to make it look moleste. and all the DAFT rent-a-kids stood in the forground, managing to make it look Tiny.
Should have read: "Earth's center of Gravity shifts as Stoned Students create Monster-Snowball Fiasco"
Other headlines next to the pictures read as "ON THE SLIPPERY ROAD TO NOWHERE: Rosey Hamilton recalls her nightmare journey during yesterday's gridlock in the snow" (she had to take a different road, and was surprised to find that it was slippery.. a nightmare to be sure.)
and "MEETING CANCELLED: Darren Grange tells of bitter dissapointment as snow forces cancellation of meeting. "We couldn't get the buns" says Darren (43), We knew it would spell disaster"
and "WHITEOUT GRIDLOCK CAUSES NIGHTMARE"... for god's sake.... it was 2" of snow. Tarts.
